[quote who="angus1949" reply="50" id="2494424"]Let's just face it. The OP was an ass in the rude way he approached his inquiry. I also know that the Stardock staff are working on a multitude of projects and they will get done when they are done. No amount of beating the dead horse here will change things. Maybe more support and encouragement instead of negativity would serve us better all the way around. IMHO threads like this should be ignored from the star

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="46" id="2494349"] I didn't intend for you to be employed by Stardock, just be a good community member and share your skills to help the community, like littleboy and people like him. You have the skill, this should be about the betterment of the community, if you are a member, rather than being about you, or you having a gripe with Stardock. I would gladly help if I had the skill. Believe me, DesktopX is in much worse shape than OD.[/quote] I would

Besides, Stardock got itself into this mess, it's up to them to dig themselves out of it.

[quote who="JcRabbit" reply="36" id="2494177"]Sorry guys, while I totally understand your frustration, as a software developer myself I have to side with Stardock on this one. When you purchase an application, you should only do it for what it does for you *now*, not for whatever expectations you have about it in the future (unless, of course, the developer stated that x or y features will be coming soon).

[quote who="starkers" reply="33" id="2494117"]Seriously, though, asking for a refund on an app that was largely written for (and still works well) on XP, just because it has issues on a more recent OS, is not warranted. It'd be like sliding off the road in wet weather, then suing the tyre company becase you chose to put on dry-weather slicks.[/quote] What OS it was "developed for" is irrelevant.

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="6" id="2493422"] It is important to remember that when you purchase a product you purchase it as it is now, not as it might be in 6 - 9 months time. [/quote] While I agree that when one purchases a product, one does so on its present rather than future merits, but future merits may (and very often do) come into consideration. This is particularly applicable to ObjectDock, because its product page states that it is in constant developmen

Hold on a moment, Mirsguy stated on the very first page of this thread that he could not reproduce any of the problems mentioned in the Bugs' thread. He got called out for that. Turns out that he didn't reproduce the behaviour, he just said what his experience with Windows 7 + OD is. Fair enough, I respect that. However, people who aren't willing to go to the lengths of attempting to reproduce bugs or tinker with their configurations shouldn't get involved in threads to do with bugs.

[quote who="Jafo" reply="63" id="2482140"] If others have not experienced any issues with 'their' use of a proggy [from wherever, not just Stardock's software] then it just MIGHT point to the problem being 'local' and not user-wide/endemic with the software.

Stemming from that statement, I do not think that it is unreasonable for OD to be compatibl

Reply to 64bit - When will it be supported? in ObjectDock Stardock Forums

MarkLederer, that's a conundrum though. It's a "hit and miss" type of situation. Some people report it working, some are having serious issues. The official line is that Stardock haven't released a version that is fully compatible, hence it's not supported. However, I do agree with OP's statements.

Yes, support cases have been filed for some of them. Some I was told were known bugs to them. Some I was told were added to list of issues that would be looked that. No updated builds have been released to incorporate those bug fixes. You're free to make your own conclusions. As for whether the bugs that I mentioned are problems with the actual program, I think that they are. The hibernation issue certainly is, incorrect display of context meny from systray is, Skype focus error is, n
